This patch removes the preprocessor definition, RX_BH_TYPE and uses the
request_threaded_irq instead of kernel thread to execute the interrupt
handler.

As a result, linux_wlan_enable_irq() and linux_wlan_disable_irq() are also
removed from the linux_wlan.c file.

Hi Greg,

I am sorry but please ignore this patch in this time.

It's my mistake to include this patch from my queue into the series of 7 patches.

Thanks,

Tony.

It's already in my tree, right?  I can revert it if you want me to, but
I can't ignore it anymore, sorry.

Hi Greg,

If it's already in your tree and can be applied alone, no problem to me. I will later send remaining series of it.

Thanks,

Tony.
